Lido Pimienta recruits Bomba Estéreo's Li Saumet for new single "Nada"
Lido Pimienta is back with new single "Nada", which sees her collaborate with Bomba Estéreo's Li Saumet.
"Nada" will feature on Pimienta's sophomore LP Miss Colombia alongside previous singles "Eso Que Tu Haces" and "No Pude".
Pimienta says of the new offering, ""Nada" was written a few days after I gave birth to my daughter … After giving birth, my body had a hole in it. I felt empty yet heavy at the same time. That kind of pain, trauma and shock to the body is hard to explain. It's "pungent" pain, inside of you. It got me thinking about my period cramps when I was still a tween, not understanding why "being a woman" meant to bleed and to hurt and yet, we are "the weaker sex"."
She adds, "I wrote a lullaby to my baby, but I feel as though my daughter gifted me this song, to protect her and tell her "don’t be afraid of death, it is the least of your worries, you are a woman in the world. If death comes to your door, it wouldn’t be the worst thing that could happen to you"."
Miss Colombia will follow on from Pimienta's 2016 debut album La Papessa.
Pimienta wrote and arranged the 11 tracks that make up Miss Colombia, and co-produced the album with Matt Smith, aka Prince Nifty.
